Richest DJs In The World list 2013 has questionable rankings

00:00 Nov/30/1999

Since the EDM boom showed it's early symptoms a few years back, there have been a few efforts of trying to estimate what it's worth. One of the more intruiging efforts have come from the Celebrity Net Worth website and the Forbes business magazine. Now, a year after its first list, Celebrity Net Worth has released the second edition. There were eyebrows raised about the results then, this time is no different..

A lot of people were interested in the article a year ago. The site itself says there were over a million viewers within 48 hours, making them buy new server space to cope with the need. However, it caught a lot of flack for wild and largely factless estimations. The same goes for the Forbes article which deadmau5 summarized: “You’re putting the whole industry on one article written by one dude, who does not have access to any of our accounts.”

This years list, 'The Richest Electronic DJs in the world', aims for accuracy and objectivity, with the manifesto:

Below is a complete list of the richest electronic dance music DJs in the world as of May 26, 2013. To calculate the net worths, we took into account all music sales, merchandise, touring revenue, licensing, endorsements, real estate, royalties and more. We obtained that information from all publicly available sources, promoters, managers, club owners and, in some cases, the artists themselves. Finally, we took out taxes and various other fees to cover management, agents and legal expenses.
